Lime Avenue is one of the loveliest spots in Hampstead Heath. This long tree-lined walk was originally planted in 1725 and replanted in 1961. On the night of October 15, 1987, a mighty hurricane ripped through Hampstead Heath, destroying the trees along this avenue. It was replanted in 1988 and a plaque was placed memorialising this event. You would be in good company strolling through the avenue, as rumoured visitors include poet John Keats and artist John Constable. Given the beauty of this spot, there are obviously muggles aplenty. This will be a test of your muggle evasion abilities. Just act natural.
